Game over man… Sega cancels Aliens: Colonial Marines for Wii U

The final chapter of the sad story of Aliens: Colonial Marines has now been written as Sega has officially canceled the Wii U version of the game. The game was originally expected to be released as part of the Wii U’s launch window, but that deadline came and went last week without any word from Sega or developer Gearbox Software.

But that all changed today. Speaking to Joystiq, a Sega representative said: “Sega can confirm that the Wii U SKU of Aliens: Colonial Marines is no longer in development.”

I guess you could say Sega nuked it from orbit… since its mandatory I use that line in any Aliens: Colonial Marines story.
